Last Updated on July 22, 2022

Thrusting vibrators add a whole new dimension of pleasure to the typical female sex toy. If you enjoy lots of action, heavy duty movement and intense vibration then a deep thrusting vibrator will be your new favorite erotic accessory for powerful orgasms.

We think they are underrated, and so do most manufacturers. We've searched far and wide to find the best self thrusting dildos and it's a tricky search because there aren't even that many to begin with!

It is a complicated sexual device and something that women don't always gravitate toward, but in this comprehensive guide we'll teach you what a thrusting vibrator is, how it works, and how to maximize your personal pleasure.

The reality is that thrusting toys like dildos and vibrators are a little too “out there” for most women. Sure ladies love a beaded jack rabbit vibrator for clitoral stimulation, but the one with a shaft that thrusts up and down isn't always high on the priority list.

On the other hand however, women who own a thrusting rabbit vibrator with rotating beads swears by it! It's a great choice for someone looking to leave their comfort zone and try something brand new, a total departure from the ordinary.

Are you ready to enter a new dimension of internal stimulation? If yes, read on and see how the best thrusting vibrators and dildos can maximize your pleasure, provide amazing orgasms, and vibrate the clit.

What is a Thrusting Vibrator?

In essence, a thrusting vibrator is an automatic thrusting sex toy designed to provide up & down movement and in and out motion inside the vagina They come in a few different shapes including the regular realistic dildo, a feminine butterfly vibrator, a thin thrusting anal dildo or a typical beaded jack rabbit vibrator with clitoral stimulation, also known as the thrusting rabbit.

The hands free self thrusting sex toy is a modification of a current style of vibrator or dildo, where the top third of the shaft thrusts providing a sensation of movement. Most are visually obvious with an accordion to extend and retract, while others have a shaft with that moves by magnetic force inside a hollow interior that simulates thumping instead of the actual shaft extending and retracting.

Thrusts are usually are battery operated, but we are noticing a surge in rechargeable thrusting vibrators with G Spot stimulation. This is a hot trend in sex toy development as we are also seeing rechargeable vibrators in numerous other adult toy categories for both men and women. We also see a standard size, usually small-to-medium size shafts with a butterfly, rabbit ears or a bunny as the standard external tickler.

How Does a Thrusting Vibrator Work?

Vertical motor in a thrusting vibrator

To fully explain how a self thrusting vibrator works, we need to put on our engineer hats and talk technical for a moment:

A vertical piston inside the shaft has a thrust bearing and a guide bearing. . “The thrust bearing is usually at the top of the motor and may consist of one or more angular contact bearings or a spherical roller bearing. The upward and downward force of the applied axial load dictate the type and number of thrust bearings needed to obtain optimum performance and service life.”.

Yes, this is an overload of technical jargon for most of us non-engineers out there, but this style of sex toy is THAT complex! When you examine it closely, there are many moving parts working in symbiosis. Not only the vertical motor with the 2 coordinated bearings, but also a motor that twirls the head and spins a set of metal beads inside the shaft.

Once we fully comprehend the intricacies of this style of woman's sex toy, we have newfound appreciation of the technology that goes into this unique orgasmic device. Long story short, there is a lot of technology and development that goes into making these work.

Thrusting Sex Toys and Internal / Clitoral Stimulation

We're not done yet either! All clitoral thrusting vibes for women have a third external motor that vibrates inside the clitoral stimulator, butterfly or bunny ears shape that extends from the middle of the shaft. The 3rd motor is where all the magic happens for her external sexual pleasure (read: clitoral orgasm).

In this case, the vertical motor with the bearing and the spinning beaded motor is controlled by one dial, while a separate dial controls the clitoral stimulator, rotating beads and rabbit ears. This way, the user can customize the vibration strength for their personal needs.

Fun fact: These are often some of the best really strong vibrators. Often they are waterproof and have multi-function settings such as pulsing and thumping patterns in the rabbit vibe stimulator. The spinning head usually only has a few speed settings, although they're more than enough to provide the user with numerous and diverse sensations.

Pro tip: If you turn down the motor of the external stimulator, more energy will flow to the vertical upwards & downward motor and increase the intensity and speed of the in and out motion.

How to Use a Thrusting Vibrator

If you're wondering how to use a deep thrusting vibe without the added clitoral stimulation feature, the steps are identical, except that you would omit the part regarding the stimulator. As said above, the only difference between the dildo and vibe – the dildo lacks a clitoral stimulating appendage.

However, assuming however you bought a thrusting butterfly or jack rabbit vibe, we want to provide you with a few tips on how to maximize the sensations when using one. Here are the steps to make it feel even more enjoyable:

  1. Insert the batteries making sure to note that direction of the polarities (thrusting vibes usually run on AA batteries). Alternatively, plug the USB cord into your computer if you have a USB rechargeable vibrator.
  2. Lubricate the head and a couple of inches below the shaft with water based personal lubricant. Don't worry. All the best thrusters are waterproof, so you can use as much lubricant as you prefer.
  3. Insert the shaft into your vagina.
  4. Position the clitoral stimulator rabbit or bunny over the clitoris. You can spread your labia and press the stimulator firmly against the clitoris directly, or let the stimulator lay over the clitoral hood for a lighter tickle.
  5. Activate the thrusting dildo motor first. Depending on how deep the shaft is inserted into your vagina, you can adjust how far in you'll hold the shaft to enjoy the movement at the right place. Some women prefer the movement to be shallow, others like it deep. Try both to see what you like best!
  6. Activate the clitoral stimulator and re-position if needed to adjust the depth of the up & down motion.
  7. Turn up the motors all the way to the strongest setting, or select a vibrating pattern that appeals to your desires.
  8. Lay back and enjoy! Feel free to experiment with different settings and positions.

Thrusting Vibrator Buyers Guide

Thrusting vibrators and sex toys

There's a wide offer of thrusting vibrators out there. And while they're still considered niche sex toys, their number grows systematically as more and more adult toys manufacturers join the hype train. However, with so many thrusters available, the question is how to pick the best one?

Now, when it comes to our offer of thrusting toys, you can rest assured you're getting a top-quality vibe. However, to ensure you get the most out of thruster, you need to consider your needs and pick the toy accordingly. To help you with that, I've listed some of the most significant factors to look for when shopping for a thrusting vibrator:

Size

Bigger is always better? Not in the case of thrusting vibrators. Size matters here a lot, but not in the way you might think. Your vibe has one job, to give you the most pleasure possible. However, if it can't fit in the right places, it won't be able to perform properly, leaving you disappointed.

What size is the best, then? Well, it depends on your needs and experience. If you are a greedy girl, a larger vibe is probably your preferable choice, and it's nothing wrong with that. However, if you're only beginning your journey with sex toys, bigger dildos can make it more painful than pleasurable.

With all that in mind, I'd suggest going for small or medium-sized vibrators. Such toys certainly feel less intimidating and therefore comfortable for less experienced women. The right shaft size is key to finding that sweet G-spot and having a blast when playing with yourself.

Shape

Thrusting vibrators come in various shapes. As covered, you can opt for a butterfly vibe, rabbit vibrator, or a realistic penis dildo. The choice here is entirely subjective, as there's no one-size-fits-all toy. Like the size of your toy, its shape will depend on your personal preferences. However, the shape will also impact a few other things.

For instance, straight vibes tend to perform better under pressure. Such vibrators are also easier to clean, as curved shafts may create pockets that collect bacteria. On the other hand, curved vibrators can maximize pleasure, providing you with a unique experience.

It can also backfire, though, as curves can feel uncomfortable when pushing up inside your vagina or anus. If you've never used a vibrator or dildo before, a straight shaft is probably the safest choice. You can add a suction cup to help with handling, however.

Material

The material used should play a significant role in your final choice, especially if you have sensitive skin or allergies. For example, latex sex toys tend to cause a rash, which is probably something you'd like to avoid after having a great time pleasuring yourself.

Generally speaking, it's best to stick to such materials as glass, silicone, or stainless steel. These are the safest materials that should prevent allergies and other conditions from ruining your experience.

The material will also impact the type of lube you use. Suppose you opt for a silicone vibe. In this case, you can use it with any type of lube except water-based lubricants. Glass or stainless steel models, on the other hand, can be used with any type of lubricant. These are also easier to clean and maintain.

Vibrating Functions

As covered, thrusting vibrators are complex devices, and there are many different types of thrusting vibes that all come with their unique specifications. Of course, the primary two features of clit and vaginal stimulators remain the same, but there are numerous other features that manufacturers include in their devices that may enhance your experience.

Among the typical features the best modern thrusting vibrators accommodate, we can include:

  • Several thrust and vibe settings
  • Clitoris and perineum stimulators
  • Wireless remote control
  • Ergonomic handles and buttons
  • Pre-programmable interfaces
  • Rechargeable battery

Finding a thrusting vibrator with all these features should be your priority. Not only will it make your self-pleasuring more enjoyable, but it will also make your life much more comfortable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Now that we have the most important things out of the way, I want to address some of the frequently asked questions many people have regarding thrusting vibrators.

Does a thrusting sex toy feel realistic?

Thrusting vibrators can provide exquisite and intense sensations. The hands-free play feature is amazing, and the number of different settings ensures every woman gets exactly what she wants from the toy. However, despite all these amazing features, using a thrusting vibrator doesn't feel a hundred percent real. Don't get me wrong, it gets close, but nothing can compare to actual sex.

What is the best position to use my thrusting vibrator?

That's the best part of using a thrusting vibrator. It works great no matter the position. Whether you feel best when pleasuring yourself doggy style, missionary, or cowgirl, you can rest assured your vibrator will do its job. You can experiment with more positions if your vibrator comes with a suction cup.

Can I use it during sex?

Of course, you can. Moreover, it's something I dearly recommend if you're looking to spice things up in bed. Ask your partner whether they're okay with experimenting with sex toys. They work great when it comes to foreplay, enhancing the entire experience and making it even more intense between you two.

How to maintain my thrusting sex toy?

If you want your vibrator to serve you for a long time, you need to take proper care of it. First of all, cleaning the entire thing after usage is a must. Not only from the vibrator's lifespan perspective but for hygienic reasons as well.

Other than that, be careful with lubricants. For instance, if you have a silicone vibrator, avoid using a silicone lube as it may harm the toy. Water-based lubricants are the safest option when it comes to that.

What is the best thrusting vibe out there?

With so many different thrusting vibrators available, it's impossible to pick the best one. It all depends on your personal preferences and requirements. In general, it's always best to consider things like the material, size, shape, battery life, price, etc. You can also refer to our guide to the best thrusting toys if you need some help finding the best vibe for you.
